Pineiro (groin) should be ready Week 1, according to head coach Frank Reich, and he could still kick some this week, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.

Pineiro has been dealing with the injury since at least Aug. 8 and hasn't appeared in either of the team's two preseason contests. In his absence, the team signed Matthew Wright, who has been handling kicking duties since. However, as long as he is healthy for the season opener against the Falcons, Pineiro should remain the starting placekicker for the Panthers.

Carlson made a 52-yard field goal and both extra points he attempted in Saturday's 21-17 preseason loss to the Patriots.

Carlson missed a couple extra points in Green Bay's exhibition opener, but he bounced back in fine fashion, making every kick he attempted Saturday -- including a field goal from beyond 50 yards. The Packers have stood by Carlson despite some accuracy issues during training camp, and barring a rough night in the preseason finale, the rookie is set to open the regular season as the team's kicker.

Brown connected on a 25-yard field-goal attempt and made both of his extra-point attempts during Saturday's 34-17 preseason loss to the Raiders.

While a chip shot field goal and two PATs aren't exactly world-moving in terms of Brown's hold on the starting kicker position, he also didn't hurt his cause, and the Rams didn't opt to bring in any outside kickers to compete after the rookie missed a 46-yard attempt last week. With just three weeks until the Rams' opening game against the Seahawks, it seems increasingly likely that the Rams will roll with Brown as their starter in lieu of bringing anyone in to vie for the role.

Slye is the only kicker on the Commanders' roster after the team released Michael Badgley on Sunday.

Slye appeared in all 17 games for Washington last season after he originally joined the team in November of 2021. The Commanders' starting kicker job appeared to be up for grabs this preseason after the Commanders signed Badgley in May, though it looks like Slye did enough to retain this role instead. The 27-year-old converted 37 of his 42 field-goal attempts and went 33-for-38 on PATs over 23 regular-season contests with Washington, and he's entering the final season of a two-year contract.

Potter didn't play during Saturday's 27-15 preseason win over the Bills.

Potter served as the Steelers' placekicker during last weekend's preseason opener and was perfect on five kicks, but veteran Chris Boswell had his opportunity to shine Saturday and was also perfect on five kicks. Potter signed with Pittsburgh as an undrafted free agent earlier this offseason, and the battle to serve as the team's starting placekicker in 2023 could come down to the wire.

Boswell converted both of his field-goal attempts while making all three extra-point tries during Saturday's 27-17 preseason win over Buffalo.

Boswell didn't play during last weekend's preseason opener since rookie B.T. Potter handled placekicking duties, but the veteran served as the team's kicker against Buffalo and was perfect on five kicks. Boswell converted just 71.4 percent of his field-goal attempts last year, and it appears to be a tight battle for a roster spot between the 32-year-old and Potter ahead of the regular season.

Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said Friday that there are no plans to bring in another kicker to compete with York during the preseason, Mary Kay Cabot of cleveland.com reports.

York has struggled in exhibition action, hitting just half of his six field-goal attempts. He had two chances at a go-ahead kick late Thursday, missing wide right on a 47-yarder and wide left from five yards closer after the Eagles were flagged for a penalty. Nonetheless, Stefanski indicated confidence in the kicker, saying, "Cade's our kicker. We support him. We have a ton of confidence in him. That's really as simple as that." York was up-and-down as a rookie last season, making just 24 of 32 field-goal attempts but showing a strong leg with a 4-for-7 mark from 50-plus yards.

Pineiro (groin) is not expected to play in Friday's game at the Giants, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official website reports.

Pineiro's absence will mark his second straight exhibition game missed while he continues to nurse a groin injury. In his absence, Matthew Wright is expected to handle kicking duties. The 27-year-old will have only one more chance to suit up in the preseason.

Dicker is expected to compete against Dustin Hopkins for the kicking role with the Chargers, Eric Smith of the team's official website reports.

Hopkins had been sidelined with an undisclosed injury for the majority of camp up until now, which has led to Dicker taking on all the kicking responsibilities. However, it now looks like this is going to be a legitimate competition. Dicker made all six of his field-goal attempts in the competition at practice today and is now 58-of-64 (90.6 percent) at camp in kicks that were being counted. Hopkins, on the other hand, is 10-of-15 on his attempts.

Hopkins (undisclosed) returned to practice Thursday, Eric Smith of the Chargers' official site reports.

Hopkins, who had been dealing with an unspecified injury, thus kicked for the first time since the second day of camp (July 27). Now that Hopkins is back on the field, the 32-year-old is slated to compete with Cameron Dicker for the Chargers' Week 1 placekicking assignment. The two are listed as co-starters on the team's posted unofficial depth chart, but considering that Dicker has made 58 of 64 kicks (90.6 percent) of his attempts during camp thus far, Hopkins will need to look sharp going forward in order to make his case to claim a roster spot.
